Etudes sur le vin : ses maladies, causes qui les provoquent : procédés nouveaux pour le conserver et pour le vieillir
This is an 1866 French treatise by Louis Pasteur on wine diseases and methods of preserving and ageing wine, printed by the Imprimerie Impériale in Paris for vintners and scientists. Its pictures are plates of microscope views showing micro-organisms as tiny rod shapes, chains, and dotted clusters in pale circular fields framed by dark octagons, with restrained tan and rust tones a designer could use for scientific diagrams or abstract organic pattern.
